    Past, Present & Hopefully Future:

    Past, Present & Hopefully Future:

    If I start from High School, I worked in a couple fastfood joints, one for only a month until I flipped my car, then later a factory for a week making bullet-proof panels for Humvees. (It involved sticky fiberglas and ovens, hotting than hell!) Then a car parts factory in their computer lab watching a quad-screen to make sure the factory robots job tasks came back with a good condition code of double zero, change tapes in the 'vault' that always freaked me out because if there was a fire, supposedly the door would seal and this gas would fill to extinguish it. If a human was caught in it, you were pretty much dead, but you had plenty of time to get out, then print out hard-copy reports for the lazy @$$es out on the floor who wanted a hard copy in hand even though they could pull it up on their computer terminals.

    Later, nightstock grocery, drug-gm (non-food), frozen and now running 'Nature's Market', which is a huge @$$ organic section in the produce. (It is suppose to become its own department and then I can get a freaking raise to department head pay.)

    Formally, reserve deputy sheriff and also hospital police officer.

    Now and hopefully future full-time job of writing books, directing movies, illustrating, etc.

    College bound tech school interest in maybe a year or so: Computer systems, admin, networking, etc. or film production.

    Funny how a lot here have computer networking, etc as their occupation. Does it really suck? I thought it would be pretty good and pay well. I make just over $13 a hour in a grocery store. What does a computer admin make? It should be more than this!

    I impregnate horses on Dappledown Farm. It's a stable job I guess.

    I'm a vet tech at a university. Today that means I'm wrestling pigs and trying to figure out whether the rat has a tumor or an infected testicle. It also means I work 50-55 hours a week.

    I need to trade for a job where I waste time at work......oops...that's what I'm doing now.
    A penny for the old guy.

    I work a container board plant (paper mill producing the paper used to make the materials used to make carboard boxes) - Weyerhaeuser (I've been there for three years and I still can't spell it). Anyway, they ask me do stuff that I could have finished in like a month or two but I stretch it out over a year. I work there two days a week and every day weekday I have off from school. It pays my fuel expense. I'm really just living off my parents but they stopped putting gas in my vehicle. I'm in Computer Information Systems. Hopefully I'll worm my way into a local position so I don't have to move. Yeah, I screw around alot.
    I Corinthians 1:18-31 18For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. 19For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. 20Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? 21For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. 22For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: 23But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness; 24But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. 25Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. 26For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: 27But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; 28And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: 29That no flesh should glory in his presence. 30But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: 31That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.

    Renovation/construction during the day.

    At night/weekends I play in a band.

    I have a dream of getting to the point where I don't have to do the day-time thing......
